Amorosa Page #3

Agnes is cold and heartless. Even

the flies has hearts, but not Agnes.

There are strings in the human heart

that had better not be vibrated, said Dickens.

And Agnes agrees.

Loving, is life.

The rest is nothing.

I'm grown up now, father.

You must adapt to us.

I don't fit in here. We have

nothing to say to each other.

We hide our thoughts with talk!

It may be cruel, but I have

to tell the truth.

You don't know who I am, and you're

not interested in finding out.

If you knew what goes on inside me,

you would be horrified.

You are ill.

No, I'm fine!

It's you who are ill, mother! You're

just standing there half living, half dead!

Ask for forgiveness! We who were

hoping for you and Gerhard!

He probably loathes you.

Do I want Him?

I Can't get married now.

I need to write. Not girlish

journals, but real novels.

I need to find the truth within me.

About love, and eroticism.

I want to write about important things.

Wild and uninhibited, mother!

I need to experience the world alone,

and try myself, and the world.

Mother...!

Forgive me, mother...

I need to write...

...in order to sort out my life.

A MUSIC BOX IS PLAYING

Isn't it amusing?

Many thanks!

I'll show you how to handle it.

I'll manage by myself.

I have thought about you all this

time. Did you think about me?

Maybe you've met someone else

who was more intriguing?

Well, that's fine.

I think I fell in love.

But he was so different.

I don't know if I love him.

He frightens me a little.

He claims he loves me.

Solemn words...

At first you have to like a person,

isn't that right? What would Adolf say?

If we got engaged?

I don't know... if I want...

Is it your writing?

I have nothing against you writing

a little now and then, but...

First you'd like to have a family.

That responsibility comes first, right?

And I don't want people to say

"he who is married to the authoress".

I want you to be proud of me!

Not the other way around?

I don't like your tone.

Maybe you don't

like me... at all?

Agnes...

You know I like you.

We belong together somehow.

Adolf was my best friend. We belong

to the same circle of acquaintances.

What are you up to?

Agnes, what are you doing? Calm, calm...

I don't want to be kissed!

We have so much to discuss.

I want to finish my degree. Then

we'll get married, and move to Uppsala.

Don't go!

I won't.

I just want to plan our future.

The present is more important than the future.

Gerhard... Agnes...

You are about to kiss...

We just got engaged.

So, you got engaged...

...I'm... happy for you... of course..

...and I'd like to... congratulate.

But I'd wish that you'd told me

so I would have been better prepared.
